1 Dissolve ingredients (except sulfur, bicarbonate and vitamins), then sparge medium with 80% H2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Adjust pH to 6.8 with NaOH and dispense under 80% H2 and 20% CO2 gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials (up to a volume of 20%) that contain already the appropriate amount of sulfur. Autoclave at a temperature of 110°C for 20 min. Add vitamins and bicarbonate to the autoclaved medium from sterile anoxic stock solutions. The solution of vitamins is sterilized by filtration and stored under 100% N2 gas, whereas the solution of bicarbonate is prepared under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture and autoclaved. Adjust the pH of the complete medium to 6.5.
2 After inoculation pressurize vessels to 2 bar overpressure with sterile 80% H2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture.
